Rihanna barred from mosque for‘suggestive’pictures

Pop star Rihanna was asked to leave Abu Dhabi’s Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque complex for posing for “inappropriate” pictures outside one of the world’s largest Muslim places of worship.

Authorities said they had taken action before the Barbadian diva entered the mosque itself, which is not off-limits to non-Muslims and is a major tourist attraction in the United Arab Emirates capital.

The 25-year-old, who performed in Abu Dhabi on Saturday, posted the pictures on photo-sharing website Instagram.
